VIZSLA ANNOUNCES HIGH-GRADE DISCOVERY AT PANUCO;
DRILLS 3,701G/T AGEQ OVER 2.3 M WITHIN BROAD INTERVAL
GRADING 226 G/T AGEQ OVER 81.9 M IN THE TAJITOS HW

Vancouver, British Columbia (January 19, 2022) - Vizsla Silver Corp. (TSX-V: VZLA) (OTCQB: VIZSF) (Frankfurt: 0G3) ("Vizsla" or the "Company") is pleased to announce a new high-grade, precious metal rich discovery within the hanging wall of Tajitos at its 100%-owned, flagship Panuco silver-gold project ("Panuco" or the "Project") located in Mexico.

Highlights

New "Copala Vein" Discovery

• Hole CS-21-90 returned 3,701 grams per tonne (g/t) silver equivalent (AgEq) (2,147 g/t silver and 18.04 g/t gold) over 2.31 metres true width (mTW) hosted within a broader interval grading 226 g/t AgEq over 81.91 mTW

• Follow-up hole CS-21-99, completed ~100 m vertically below CS-21-90 intersected 2,274 g/t AgEq (1,924 g/t silver and 5.00 g/t gold) over 1.52 mTW, also hosted within a broad interval grading 183 g/t AgEq over 83.10 mTW

• To date, eight holes have encountered the Copala Vein, with all reported intercepts occurring above 200 meters vertical depth

Other notable intercepts include

• CS-21-94: 404 g/t AgEq (230 g/t silver and 2.02 g/t gold) over 24.36 mTW, including 3,087 g/t AgEq (1,523 g/t silver and 17.75 g/t gold) over 1.80 mTW

• CS-21-105: 602 g/t AgEq (323 g/t silver and 3.21 g/t gold) over 2.68 mTW

• CS-21-62: 539 g/t AgEq (373 g/t silver and 2.02 g/t gold) over 2.58 mTW

Vizsla President and CEO Michael Konnert commented: "These results are an incredible start to 2022 for Vizsla. While drilling the northeast extents of Tajitos we intersected a new, nearly flat lying vein within the Tajitos hanging wall. This new 'Copala Vein' is marked by several near-surface high-grade silver and gold intercepts contained within a broad mineralized envelope up to eighty meters wide. Today's results will be included in the Company's maiden resource estimate in Q1 of this year and further reinforce the potential for Panuco to host a world class silver deposit."

Copala Vein Discovery

The new Copala Vein was discovered in drillholes targeting the northeastern extent of Tajitos. Mineralization intercepted in holes CS-21-90 & CS-21-99, starts from ~85 meters downhole and extends over 80 metres in width. The structure is shallow dipping at ~35 degrees east and strikes to the north. To date, eight holes have encountered this mineralization.

Vizsla geologists interpret the Copala Vein to be one of a series of veins formed in near flat-lying structures which may have developed during one of two extensional deformation events early in the geological history of the property. Several similar structures are known regionally, including the historically mined La Colorada structure which is also located within the Cinco Senores Vein Corridor, approximately 850 meters to the north of Tajitos. The Copala Vein marks the first discovery of this vein orientation and style made by Vizsla that has not been previously exploited by historical mining.

Cristiano Vein/Fault

Tajitos drilling has also intercepted a northwest striking structure named the "Cristiano Vein". Relative to the Copala Vein, Cristiano represents a younger vein hosted within a fault which offsets the main Tajitos Vein (Figure 3).  Follow-up drilling remains ongoing perpendicular to the structure to better target the vein.

Tajitos Drilling detail

Since the last update (see press release dated November 3, 2021), drilling targeting the Tajitos resource area continues to highlight a significant panel mineralization, now measuring 1,000 metres long by 400 meters deep. Results from new drilling suggest higher grade mineralization remains open at depth, this demonstrated by hole CS-21-105, which intercepted 602 g/t AgEq over 2.68 mTW in the deepest hole drilled to date at Tajitos. Along strike to the northeast and southwest, the vein appears to thin out returning relatively low-grade mineralization.

Three rigs continue to expand mineralization at Tajitos with additional drilling planned to further define these new hanging wall discoveries, which remain open in all directions.

Note: True widths have yet to be determined for holes intercepting the Cristiano Vein. All numbers are rounded.  Silver equivalent is calculated using the following formula: Silver-equivalent = ((Au_g/t x 52.48) + (Ag_g/t x 0.5289)) / 0.5627.  Metal price assumptions are $17.50 ounce silver and $1,700 ounce gold, recoveries assumptions are 96% gold and 94% silver, based on similar deposit types.

About the Panuco project

The newly consolidated Panuco silver-gold project is an emerging high-grade discovery located in southern Sinaloa, Mexico, near the city of Mazatlán. The 6,754.1-hectare, past producing district benefits from over 75 kilometres of total vein extent, a 500 ton per day mill, 35 kilometres of underground mines, tailings facilities, roads, power and permits.

The district contains intermediate to low sulfidation epithermal silver and gold deposits related to siliceous volcanism and crustal extension in the Oligocene and Miocene. Host rocks are mainly continental volcanic rocks correlated to the Tarahumara Formation.

Two new claims have been acquired adding 149.9 hectares of new area to the Panuco project. 4,103.5 hectares previously reported as part of the Panuco project will now be designated as separate projects (due to them being located to the west and south of the Panuco project proper).  These claims remain 100% owned by Vizsla Silver.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control

Drill core and rock samples were shipped to ALS Limited in Zacatecas, Zacatecas, Mexico and in North Vancouver, Canada for sample preparation and for analysis at the ALS laboratory in North Vancouver.  The ALS Zacatecas and North Vancouver facilities are ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025 certified. Silver and base metals were analyzed using a four-acid digestion with an ICP finish and gold was assayed by 30-gram fire assay with atomic absorption ("AA") spectroscopy finish. Over limit analyses for silver, lead and zinc were re-assayed using an ore-grade four-acid digestion with AA finish.

Control samples comprising certified reference samples, duplicates and blank samples were systematically inserted into the sample stream and analyzed as part of the Company's quality assurance / quality control protocol.
